Today the US is home to 5% of the world's population but a quarter of the world's prisoners. It also has the highest rate of youth imprisonment and on any given day there are more than 70,000 youths in detention. And the biggest winners of this mass incarceration? The for-profit prison companies whose business models essentially depend on locking more and more people up.

Adam Ruins Everything - The Shocking Way PrivatePrisons Make Money

published:23 Nov 2016

views:819604

Just months before the election of PresidentTrump, the Justice Department made a huge decision: to end the use of private prisons. Private prisons and private detention facilities – an important distinction – are run by individual companies and are infamous for their poor conditions and treatment of detainees. But it seems President Trump isn't following through on rolling back private prisons. Now, why could that be?

Private prisons such as the CCA (Corrections Corporation of America) own over 200 facilities in the nation and makes a profit close to 5 billion dollars per year on inmates. They rely on anti-immigrant laws like Arizona's SB1070 and copycat laws across the nation for fresh inmates and continual profit.

It wasn't easy to pick this topic, but I believe that America's 40-year policy of mass incarceration is deeply unethical, not very effective, and promotes the security of the few at the expense of the many.
It's hard for me, as a person who was born into privilege, to imagine the challenges convicted criminals face, often for crimes that are utterly non-violent.
If you're feeling like you want to do something about this, I'm mostly just making this video as an informational resource and to encourage people to think of felons not as bad, scary people but just as people.
The people at The Prison Policy Initiative were very helpful in the creation of this video and if you want to learn more about their work and how to get involved go to http://www.prisonpolicy.org

Private prison

A private prison or for-profit prison is a place in which individuals are physically confined or incarcerated by a third party that is contracted by a government agency. Private prison companies typically enter into contractual agreements with governments that commit prisoners and then pay a per diem or monthly rate, either for each prisoner in the facility, or for each place available, whether occupied or not. Such contracts may be for the operation only of a facility, or for design, construction and operation.

In the United Kingdom

Development

In the modern era, the United Kingdom was the first country in all of Europe to use prisons run by the private sector to hold its prisoners. Wolds Prison opened as the first privately managed prison in the UK in 1992. There are 3 ways in which a private company may take on management of a prison:

1) A prison is built by the public sector and then the operating contract is competed.

2) Companies compete to finance, design, build and run a new prison under the Private Finance Initiative. Most prisons in the UK are of this kind, although the use of PFI now appears to have been abandoned.

Private prisons - the most profitable real estate in the US?

While most folks are struggling to survive in these hard times, private prisons are flourishing in the US. In fact - there are tens of billions of dollars in business opportunities out there. It's an enourmous industry that's virtually recession proof with sky-high profits to boot. Joe Weisenthall of the Business Insider explains why the prison industrial complex is prospering in America during this tough economic time.

VICE’s Justice series examines the winners and losers of the for-profit criminal justice system. Imprisoning people for being poor has technically been illegal in this country for two hundred years, but it is still a reality. Municipalities with small, low-income populations and correspondingly low tax bases regularly pay their salaries, and pad their budgets by issuing “quality of life” and traffic fines to people for minor offenses—and sending them to jail if they can’t pay.

Why the Federal Prisons are getting out of Private Prison Business?

Why the Federal Prisons are getting out of Private Prison Business?

The federal government is getting out of the prison game, with an announcement that the Justice Department will no longer contract with for-profit prison companies. This is a move that should be better treatment for inmates in the federal prison system. The United States has more prisoners in its prisons than any other country. We house 25% of the worldwide prisoners.

How private prison phone companies profit from the families of inmates

For-profit prisons have created a “neo-slavery” in the US, according to award-winning journalist Chris Hedges. Inmates work eight hours per day for major corporations such as Chevron, Motorola, Nordstrom’s and Target, yet only have the possibility of making up to $1.25 an hour. In addition, companies that provide services like phone calls overcharge prisoners on even the most basic services, making hundreds of millions in profits annually. RT’s Ben Swann speaks to Hedges, who explains how this shadowy system came into existence.

Private prisons: How US corporations make money out of locking you up

Today the US is home to 5% of the world's population but a quarter of the world's prisoners. It also has the highest rate of youth imprisonment and on any given day there are more than 70,000 youths in detention. And the biggest winners of this mass incarceration? The for-profit prison companies whose business models essentially depend on locking more and more people up.

The Big Business Of Private Prisons, Part 4

Just months before the election of PresidentTrump, the Justice Department made a huge decision: to end the use of private prisons. Private prisons and private detention facilities – an important distinction – are run by individual companies and are infamous for their poor conditions and treatment of detainees. But it seems President Trump isn't following through on rolling back private prisons. Now, why could that be?

Private prisons such as the CCA (Corrections Corporation of America) own over 200 facilities in the nation and makes a profit close to 5 billion dollars per year on inmates. They rely on anti-immigrant laws like Arizona's SB1070 and copycat laws across the nation for fresh inmates and continual profit.

Mass Incarceration in the US

Thanks to Visually (http://Visual.ly) for facilitating the creation of this video, to http://youtube.com/kurzgesagt for the animation, and to The Prison Policy Initiative for research help and fact checking. (http://www.prisonpolicy.org).
It wasn't easy to pick this topic, but I believe that America's 40-year policy of mass incarceration is deeply unethical, not very effective, and promotes the security of the few at the expense of the many.
It's hard for me, as a person who was born into privilege, to imagine the challenges convicted criminals face, often for crimes that are utterly non-violent.
If you're feeling like you want to do something about this, I'm mostly just making this video as an informational resource and to encourage people to think of felons not as bad, scary people ...

Just months before the election of PresidentTrump, the Justice Department made a huge decision: to end the use of private prisons. Private prisons and private detention facilities – an important distinction – are run by individual companies and are infamous for their poor conditions and treatment of detainees. But it seems President Trump isn't following through on rolling back private prisons. Now, why could that be?

It wasn't easy to pick this topic, but I believe that America's 40-year policy of mass incarceration is deeply unethical, not very effective, and promotes the security of the few at the expense of the many.
It's hard for me, as a person who was born into privilege, to imagine the challenges convicted criminals face, often for crimes that are utterly non-violent.
If you're feeling like you want to do something about this, I'm mostly just making this video as an informational resource and to encourage people to think of felons not as bad, scary people but just as people.

While most folks are struggling to survive in these hard times, private prisons are flourishing in the US. In fact - there are tens of billions of dollars in business opportunities out there. It's an enourmous industry that's virtually recession proof with sky-high profits to boot.

VICE’s Justice series examines the winners and losers of the for-profit criminal justice system. Imprisoning people for being poor has technically been illegal in this country for two hundred years, but it is still a reality. Municipalities with small, low-income populations and correspondingly low tax bases regularly pay their salaries, and pad their budgets by issuing “quality of life” and traffic fines to people for minor offenses—and sending them to jail if they can’t pay.
VICE examines the ways these local governments have turned broken-windows policing into profit, and meets the people who are fighting back.

The federal government is getting out of the prison game, with an announcement that the Justice Department will no longer contract with for-profit prison companies. This is a move that should be better treatment for inmates in the federal prison system. The United States has more prisoners in its prisons than any other country. We house 25% of the worldwide prisoners.

The federal government is getting out of the prison game, with an announcement that the Justice Department will no longer contract with for-profit prison companies. This is a move that should be better treatment for inmates in the federal prison system. The United States has more prisoners in its prisons than any other country. We house 25% of the worldwide prisoners.

For-profit prisons have created a “neo-slavery” in the US, according to award-winning journalist Chris Hedges. Inmates work eight hours per day for major corporations such as Chevron, Motorola, Nordstrom’s and Target, yet only have the possibility of making up to $1.25 an hour. In addition, companies that provide services like phone calls overcharge prisoners on even the most basic services, making hundreds of millions in profits annually. RT’s Ben Swann speaks to Hedges, who explains how this shadowy system came into existence.

The Business of Private Prisons

Corporations are running many Americans prisons, but will they put profits before prisoners?
A grim new statistic: One in every hundred Americans is now locked behind bars. As the prison population grows faster than the government can build prisons, private companies see an opportunity for profit.
This week, NOW on PBS investigates the government's trend to outsource prisons and prisoners to the private sector. Critics accuse private prisons of standing in the way of sentencing reform and sacrificing public safety to maximize profits.
"The notion that a corporation making a profit off this practice is more important to us than public safety or the human rights of prisoners is outrageous," Judy Greene, a criminal policy analyst, tells NOW on PBS.

Immigrants for Sale • FULL DOCUMENTARY • BRAVE NEW FILMS

The detention of migrants has become a multi-billion dollar industry in which immigrants are sold to the highest bidder and traded like mere products. The CorrectionsCorporation of America, The Geo Group, and the Management and Training Corporation run over 200 facilities all over the nation. These facilities offer over 150,000 bed spaces and rake in a total profit of close to five billion dollars per year. The fact that these detention centers get paid for the number of people that are in the center per night offers, therefore, no incentive to speed up the legal processes and let the detainees leave the facility.

Punishment and Profits: Immigration Detention - Fault Lines

Immigration is a key issue in the U.S. presidential election with Republican candidates trying to demonstrate their tough stance on undocumented immigrants.
Meanwhile, under the Obama administration, the detention and deportation of immigrants has reached an all-time high. Each day, the U.S. government detains more than 33,000 non-citizens at a cost of $5.5 million per day.
The result is a lot of money for the powerful private prison industry, which spends millions of dollars on lobbying and now operates nearly half of the country's immigration detention centers.
Fault Lines travels to Texas and Florida to investigate the business of immigrant detention and to find out how a handful of companies help to shape U.S. immigration laws.

The Crowley prison made headlines back in 2004 after a major prison riot caused overwhelmed staff to run away from the facility. Outside law enforcement had to come in to put down the uprising.
"The problems that were identified in the wake of the riot are typical of the private prison industry and happen over and over again," Green tells NOW.

PBS

Corporations are running many Americans prisons, but will they put profits before prisoners?
A grim new statistic: One in every hundred Americans is now locked behind bars. As the prison population grows faster than the government can build prisons, private companies see an opportunity for profit.
This week, NOW on PBS investigates the government's trend to outsource prisons and prisoners to the private sector. Critics accuse private prisons of standing in the way of sentencing reform and sacrificing public safety to maximize profits.
"The notion that a corporation making a profit off this practice is more important to us than public safety or the human rights of prisoners is outrageous," Judy Greene, a criminal policy analyst, tells NOW on PBS.

The detention of migrants has become a multi-billion dollar industry in which immigrants are sold to the highest bidder and traded like mere products. The CorrectionsCorporation of America, The Geo Group, and the Management and Training Corporation run over 200 facilities all over the nation. These facilities offer over 150,000 bed spaces and rake in a total profit of close to five billion dollars per year. The fact that these detention centers get paid for the number of people that are in the center per night offers, therefore, no incentive to speed up the legal processes and let the detainees leave the facility.

0:00 Private prisons such as the CCA (Corrections Corporation of America) own over 200 facilities in the nation and makes a profit close to 5 billion dollars per year on inmates. They rely on anti-immigrant laws like Arizona's SB1070 and copycat laws across the nation for fresh inmates and continual profit.
2:30 Mother and son, Emily and Logan, suffer the repercussions of private prison greed as they commute to her husband's final court date in Georgia, the victim of anti-immigration laws.

The CCA tries to prevent this service by escorting anyone handing out fliers off the premises. Family members share testimonials about how these prisons do not accommodate inmates who have health conditions such as diabetes.

Immigration is a key issue in the U.S. presidential election with Republican candidates trying to demonstrate their tough stance on undocumented immigrants.
Meanwhile, under the Obama administration, the detention and deportation of immigrants has reached an all-time high. Each day, the U.S. government detains more than 33,000 non-citizens at a cost of $5.5 million per day.
The result is a lot of money for the powerful private prison industry, which spends millions of dollars on lobbying and now operates nearly half of the country's immigration detention centers.
Fault Lines travels to Texas and Florida to investigate the business of immigrant detention and to find out how a handful of companies help to shape U.S. immigration laws.

Private prisons: How US corporations make money out of locking you up

Today the US is home to 5% of the world's population but a quarter of the world's prisoners. It also has the highest rate of youth imprisonment and on any given day there are more than 70,000 youths in detention. And the biggest winners of this mass incarceration? The for-profit prison companies whose business models essentially depend on locking more and more people up.

The Big Business Of Private Prisons, Part 4

Just months before the election of PresidentTrump, the Justice Department made a huge decision: to end the use of private prisons. Private prisons and private detention facilities – an important distinction – are run by individual companies and are infamous for their poor conditions and treatment of detainees. But it seems President Trump isn't following through on rolling back private prisons. Now, why could that be?

Mass Incarceration in the US

Thanks to Visually (http://Visual.ly) for facilitating the creation of this video, to http://youtube.com/kurzgesagt for the animation, and to The Prison Policy Initiative for research help and fact checking. (http://www.prisonpolicy.org).
It wasn't easy to pick this topic, but I believe that America's 40-year policy of mass incarceration is deeply unethical, not very effective, and promotes the security of the few at the expense of the many.
It's hard for me, as a person who was born into privilege, to imagine the challenges convicted criminals face, often for crimes that are utterly non-violent.
If you're feeling like you want to do something about this, I'm mostly just making this video as an informational resource and to encourage people to think of felons not as bad, scary people but just as people.
The people at The Prison Policy Initiative were very helpful in the creation of this video and if you want to learn more about their work and how to get involved go to http://www.prisonpolicy.org

Private prisons - the most profitable real estate in the US?

While most folks are struggling to survive in these hard times, private prisons are flourishing in the US. In fact - there are tens of billions of dollars in business opportunities out there. It's an enourmous industry that's virtually recession proof with sky-high profits to boot. Joe Weisenthall of the Business Insider explains why the prison industrial complex is prospering in America during this tough economic time.

VICE’s Justice series examines the winners and losers of the for-profit criminal justice system. Imprisoning people for being poor has technically been illegal in this country for two hundred years, but it is still a reality. Municipalities with small, low-income populations and correspondingly low tax bases regularly pay their salaries, and pad their budgets by issuing “quality of life” and traffic fines to people for minor offenses—and sending them to jail if they can’t pay.
VICE examines the ways these local governments have turned broken-windows policing into profit, and meets the people who are fighting back.

Private prison

A private prison or for-profit prison is a place in which individuals are physically confined or incarcerated by a third party that is contracted by a government agency. Private prison companies typically enter into contractual agreements with governments that commit prisoners and then pay a per diem or monthly rate, either for each prisoner in the facility, or for each place available, whether occupied or not. Such contracts may be for the operation only of a facility, or for design, construction and operation.

In the United Kingdom

Development

In the modern era, the United Kingdom was the first country in all of Europe to use prisons run by the private sector to hold its prisoners. Wolds Prison opened as the first privately managed prison in the UK in 1992. There are 3 ways in which a private company may take on management of a prison:

1) A prison is built by the public sector and then the operating contract is competed.

2) Companies compete to finance, design, build and run a new prison under the Private Finance Initiative. Most prisons in the UK are of this kind, although the use of PFI now appears to have been abandoned.

(AP) — After spending years fighting to keep drones from flying over prisons, South Carolina corrections ...Prison officials got lawmakers to pass a ban this year preventing private drones from flying over prisons....

That may be up for debate but as many as 148 of the 164 inmates of prisons in Tamil Nadu passed the state board Class X exams this year ...The government appointed two teachers to take daily classes for inmates at each of the state’s eight central prisons; the prisoners appeared for the exams as private candidates....

The Business of Punishment - South Africa

Mar 2003Private prisons provide an efficient alternative to the overburdened state system.
South African jails were infamous for their appalling conditions. That all changed when a private security firm took over control of two prisons, changing them into ideal rehabilitation centres. However, in a poor country with one of the highest prison populations how practical is this new, expensive solution?

NOW on PBS 419 Prisons for Profit i

Corporations are running many Americans prisons, but will they put profits before prisoners?
A grim new statistic: One in every hundred Americans is now locked behind bars. As the prison population grows faster than the government can build prisons, private companies see an opportunity for profit.
This week, NOW on PBS investigates the government's trend to outsource prisons and prisoners to the private sector. Critics accuse private prisons of standing in the way of sentencing reform and sacrificing public safety to maximize profits.
"The notion that a corporation making a profit off this practice is more important to us than public safety or the human rights of prisoners is outrageous," Judy Greene, a criminal policy analyst, tells NOW on PBS.
Companies like Corrections Corporation of America say they're doing their part to solve the problem of inmate overflow and a shortage of beds without sacrificing safety.
"You don't cut corners to where it's going to be a safety, security or health issue," RichardSmelser, warden of the CrowleyCorrectionalFacility in Colorado tells NOW. The prison is run by CorrectionsCorporation, which had revenues of over $1.4 billion last year.
The Crowley prison made headlines back in 2004 after a major prison riot caused overwhelmed staff to run away from the facility. Outside law enforcement had to come in to put down the uprising.
"The problems that were identified in the wake of the riot are typical of the private prison industry and happen over and over again," Green tells NOW.

Immigrants for Sale • FULL DOCUMENTARY • BRAVE NEW FILMS

The detention of migrants has become a multi-billion dollar industry in which immigrants are sold to the highest bidder and traded like mere products. The CorrectionsCorporation of America, The Geo Group, and the Management and Training Corporation run over 200 facilities all over the nation. These facilities offer over 150,000 bed spaces and rake in a total profit of close to five billion dollars per year. The fact that these detention centers get paid for the number of people that are in the center per night offers, therefore, no incentive to speed up the legal processes and let the detainees leave the facility.

6:04 "El Refugio" offers free food and overnight housing for families visiting loved ones in the detention centers.

Punishment and Profits: Immigration Detention - Fault Lines

Immigration is a key issue in the U.S. presidential election with Republican candidates trying to demonstrate their tough stance on undocumented immigrants.
Meanwhile, under the Obama administration, the detention and deportation of immigrants has reached an all-time high. Each day, the U.S. government detains more than 33,000 non-citizens at a cost of $5.5 million per day.
The result is a lot of money for the powerful private prison industry, which spends millions of dollars on lobbying and now operates nearly half of the country's immigration detention centers.
Fault Lines travels to Texas and Florida to investigate the business of immigrant detention and to find out how a handful of companies help to shape U.S. immigration laws.
